Nivolumab | Opdivo | MDX-1106|BMS-936558 | Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor 149 PD-L1/PD-1 antibody 121 | Opdivo (nivolumab) is an antibody that targets PD-1 (PDCD1), which results in increased T-cell activation and enhanced anti-tumor immune response (PMID: 28891423). Opdivo (nivolumab) is FDA approved for use as a monotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progressed on prior therapies, Hodgkin's lymphoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, urothelial carcinoma (UC) , esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, resected esophageal or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer, as a monotherapy or in combination with Yervoy (ipilimumab) for melanoma, renal cell carcinoma (RCC), microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) colorectal cancer (including patients 12 years or older), and hepatocellular carcinoma, in combination with Yervoy (ipilimumab) as first-line therapy for PD-L1-positive (>=1%) metastatic NSCLC without EGFR or ALK alterations, with Yervoy (ipilimumab) and platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line therapy for metastatic or recurrent NSCLC without EGFR or ALK alterations, with platinum doublet chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment for patients with resectable NSCLC, with Cabometyx (cabozantinib) for advanced RCC, with fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-containing chemotherapy for advanced or metastatic gastric cancer, GEJ cancer, and esophageal adenocarcinoma, and with cisplatin and gemcitabine as first-line treatment for unresectable or metastatic UC (FDA.gov). |
Rituximab | Rituxan | IDEC-C2B8|MabThera | CD20 Antibody 24 | Rituxan (rituximab) is a chimeric mononclonal antibody that binds to CD20 on B-cells, resulting in induction of complement-dependent and antibody-dependent cytotoxicity, and potentially leading to decreased B-cell tumor growth (PMID: 28983798). Rituxan (rituximab) is FDA approved for use as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy in CD20-positive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, in combination with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide in CD20-positive chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and in combination with chemotherapy in pediatric patients (6 month to 18 years of age) with treatment-naive, CD20-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma, Burkitt-like lymphoma, or mature B-cell acute leukemia (B-AL) (FDA.gov). |
